完型的两个空,不懂额~
My only goal was to marry a man who would love me as much as i loved him.When i realized i couldn't hold a wedding ceremony in the coming years,my_________ turned to being the best waitress i could be.
为什么这个空只能填focus而不能 写direction
At the age of 38,although it was _____,I had to make a decision to change the life.
我填的是embarrassed但答案是painful.
（我是我做的完型节选）

Answer 1

完形填空并没有存在任何只能填什么词的问题,只是在四个选项中选出最佳答案
第一个空的对应词在于goal,要填上的是goal的对应词.原本作者的理想是嫁个自己爱他他也爱自己的男人,但发现她没法实现这个愿望的时候,她的生活重心就转变成了要成为最好的女侍应(难道文章的出处是老友记 嘿嘿).direction有方向或指导之意,放在这里显得太大了.女侍应明显不是一种人生的方向.
第二个空,由于上下文的对应较少,我就只能跟你说embarrassed一定不对,embarrassed是“尴尬的”,用于修饰人,而此处是用于说明一种“令人尴尬的”境地,需用embarrassing.painful放在此处是通顺的
